Our Trailers
Well Balanced for an Easy Tow
Other trailers are often built with an asymmetrical weight distribution which makes for a rather front-heavy tow, our trailers on the other hand ensure a well balanced frame for a wide tray and an even smoother tow.
Low guard height
Unlike many of our competitors we’ve catered our tandem trailers to suit the needs of car enthusiasts just like us. Our trailers are specially designed with low guard height to suit all lowered cars and sports vehicles.
Well Maintained, Regularly Serviced and Thoroughly Inspected
All of our equipment is regularly serviced and maintained to ensure the safest and most secure towing. Our trailers are thoroughly inspected for damage and faults after every hire and are adjusted and repaired on site before being sent out once again.
Designed With Motorsport in Mind
With beaver tail rears and long ramps, our trailers are the perfect solution to your towing problems. Our tandem trailers are fabricated with low guard height to cater for the easiest loading and unloading of lowered vehicles and the ability to get in and out of the car once its loaded.
Car Carrier Trailers (x4)
Our four car carrier trailers are the backbone of Dave’s fleet, strong, stable, and built for versatility. Each car carrier trailer is a type of car trailer designed for the safe and easy transport of vehicles. These car trailers are suitable for a range of vehicles, including small vehicles, utes, and SUVs, making them ideal for various transport needs. Each trailer features dual axles, electric brakes, and a low-guard flat tray that can handle everything from small hatchbacks to high-performance or race vehicles.

- Smooth, balanced handling for long-distance towing
- Regularly serviced and safety-checked before and after every hire

Important to know: Before booking, Dave will chat with you about what you’re towing, where you’re going, and your vehicle’s towing capacity. Suitability is critical overloading a trailer isn’t just unsafe, it can also carry legal liability. Just because something fits doesn’t mean it’s within the weight limits.
Even if you’re new to towing, Dave will guide you through everything you need to know so you feel confident, capable, and safe behind the wheel.
